new to reloading and was hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
using a dillon 550b
Loading 230 gn. rn copper plated tnt (frontier) bullets using 5.3 gn. of unique
with overall length of 1.275
In a colt 1911 this works good but I can not run these through my usp.
after investigating further the copper plated bullet(not the case)has a clearance issue with the rifling.I loaded a 230 gn. rn copper jacketed winchester bullet and it has no issues.
now both rounds are the same except the bullet.???
I guess my question is, do I load winchesters for my HK and spend more money or have I got my overall length messed up?
what overall length is safe for HK?
Thanks for your time !!
